Man when does this get better .. ❤️🩹
When the obsession is removed. Then you can be free. Surrender and be saved.
You’re not alone , and you’re doing great❤️ one day at a time
At this point, I have like an hour a week when the mental obsession with alcohol kicks into high gear. The rest of the time I can get through pretty well by following my AA program to a t. I go to meetings everyday, sometimes 2. I meet with my sponsor. I reach out to make sober friends. Those things are all working for me and I'm feeling so much better.
Surrender
You’re still early in your recovery
work and patience
Let me know when you find out cause I’m wondering the same thing!
I keep saying this to my dear friend, who is really struggling to stay sober. I don't seem to be able to explain what it means to surrender in a way that he can understand. It's so simple, but somehow, it can be so hard to grasp. I wish I could get him to feel what it means to surrender.
Better is how you choose to see it. For some, waking up in a bed, is better. For others, waking up at all, is an improvement. Take each day, each moment and remember that you’re alive for a reason, to make it to the next moment.
Life on life terms is hard
Simple program but not easy
Get to lots of meetings
Tiffany, I would say that you have the power to decide the "when", and you need to find your way. My "when" started when I decided to write a journal about my life, that really changed my life.
When the necessary changes are made, will need to allow 20-30 days for your body to adjust to your new habits. At least that’s what I’ve been thought and from what I’ve seen from others in my recovery group
